79349002: Structure of levator ani muscle (body structure)

• SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...
• \An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Structure of striated muscle and/or smooth muscle\...
